Discovered 130 loose BB Snotlings and 2 unopened blisters

Post by sammyz »

I found a bunch of BB snotlings I bought back when I was a teenager and never did anything with. Any one have a clue what this kind of lot would be worth? I see lots of individual snots on ebay for $8 and some for up to $20 a piece. Would it be smarter to parcel them out into 10 lots of 13? Would a complete set of all the snots (if there is one) be worth the most? Would people on here possibly like to deal directly rather than going through Ebay?

Probably best send them to me and let me deal with them.

It might be worth selling the unopened blisters as they are, I've even see people good money for empty boxes before.

As to the other snotlings, it depends how much time you want to invest in listing, packing and posting them. Some sellers on e-bay make good money with loads of high priced buy it now listings of individual models, putting them back up again and again until they sell (sometimes with a small reduction). Of course you then have the hassle of sending up to 130 packets around the world over the space of a few days/weeks/months.

Another option would be to sell off batches every few months so as not to deflate the market. Or you could just bung 13 batches of 10 on starting at 99p and hope for the best.

Of course a collector on here may make you an offer for certain models too.

Ok, so I think when I originally bought the lot it was 130 in total, including the ones in blister. After sorting through the loose ones I discovered that quite a few of them are not Blood Bowl snots but old WH snots. However I think some of them may still be rare (the ones mooning or peeing in boots).
